27、promised him. He was so busy dreaming about all the fish he would catch that he was unaware of everything else around him.He rode along until a strange sound drew him to the present. He came to a stop and looked curiously up to the heavens. What he saw shocked and terrified him. A huge swarm of bees

28、 filled the sky like a black cloud and the buzzing mass seemed to be heading angrily towards him.With no time to waste, Andy sped off in the opposite direction, riding furiously but without knowing how to escape the swarm. With a rapidly beating heart and his legs pumping furiously, he sped down the

29、 rough road. As the bees came closer, his panic increased. Andy knew that he was sensitive to bee stings (蜇). The last sting had landed him in hospital and that was only one bee sting! He had been forced to stay in bed for two whole days. Suddenly, his fathers words came to him. “When you are in a t

30、ight situation, dont panic. Use your brain and think your way out of it.”On a nearby hill, he could see smoke waving slowly skywards from the chimney of the Nelson family home. “Bees dont like smoke,” he thought. “They couldnt get into the house.” Andy raced towards the Nelson house, but the bees we

31、re gaining ground. Andy knew he could not reach the house in time. He estimated that the bees would catch up with him soon.Suddenly, out of the corner of his eyes, he spotted a small dam used by Mr. Nelson to irrigate his vegetable garden. Off his bike and into the cool water he dived, disappearing

32、below the surface and away from the savage insects. After holding his breath for as long as he could, Andy came up for air and noticed the bees had gone. Dragging himself out of the dam, he struggled up the hilly slope and rang the doorbell. Mrs. Nelson took him inside and rang his mother.“Youll rea

33、lly need that fishing break to help you recover,” laughed his mother with relief. “Thank goodness you didnt panic!” But Andy did not hear her. He was dreaming once again of the fish he would catch tomorrow.”51Why did Andy fail to notice the swarm of bees earlier?A. He was lost in the thought of the

A university graduate majoring in computer science.CKong Zi, also called Confucius (551 479 B.C.), and Socrates (469 399 B.C.) lived only a hundred years apart, and during their lifetimes th

44、ere was no contact between China and Greece, but it is interesting to look at how the world that each of these great philosophers came from shaped their ideas, and how these ideas in turn, shaped their societies.Neither philosopher lived in times of peace, though there were more wars in Greece than

45、in China. The Chinese states were very large and feudal, while the Greek city-states were small and urban. The urban environment in which Socrates lived allowed him to be more radical (激进的) than Confucius. Unlike Confucius, Socrates was not asked by rulers how to govern effectively. Thus, Socrates w

46、as able to be more idealistic, focusing on issues like freedom, and knowledge for its own sake. Confucius, on the other hand, advised those in government service, and many of his students went on to government service.Confucius suggested the Golden Rule as a principle for the conduct of life: “Do no

47、t do to others what you would not want others to do to you.” He assumed that all men were equal at birth, though some had more potential than others, and that it was knowledge that set men apart. Socrates focused on the individual, and thought that the greatest purpose of man was to seek wisdom. He

48、believed that some had more potential to develop their reason than others did. Like Confucius, he believed that the superior class should rule the inferior (下层的) classes.For Socrates, the family was of no importance, and the community of little concern. For Confucius, however, the family was the cen

49、tre of society, with family relations considered much more important than political relations.Both men are respected much more today than they were in their lifetimes.59Which of the following is TRUE according to the first paragraph?A. Socrates and Confucius had much in common.B. The societies were

50、influenced by the philosophers ideas.C. Confucius had much influence on Socrates ideas.D. There were cultural exchanges between China and Greece.60Socrates shared with Confucius the idea that .A. all men were equal when they were bornB. the purpose of man was to seek freedom and wisdomC. the lower c

51、lasses should be ruled by the upper classD. people should not ask others to do what they did not want to61What made some people different from others according to Confucius?A. Family.B. Knowledge.C. Potential.D. Community.62This passage is organized in the pattern of .A. time and eventsB. cause and

52、effect C. comparison and contrastD. definition and classificationDModern inventions have speeded up peoples lives amazingly. Motor-cars cover a hundred miles in little more than an hour, aircraft cross the world inside a day, while computers operate at lightning speed. Indeed, this love of speed see

53、ms never-ending. Every year motor-cars are produced which go even faster and each new computer boasts (吹嘘) of saving precious seconds in handling tasks.All this saves time, but at a price. When we lose or gain half a day in speeding across the world in an airplane, our bodies tell us so. We get the

54、uncomfortable feeling known as jet-lag; our bodies feel that they have been left behind in another time zone. Again, spending too long at computers results in painful wrists and fingers. Mobile phones also have their dangers, according to some scientists; too much use may transmit harmful radiation

55、into our brains, a consequence we do not like to think about.However, what do we do with the time we have saved? Certainly not relax, or so it seems. We are so accustomed to constant activity that we find it difficult to sit and do nothing, or even just one thing at a time. Perhaps the days are long

56、 gone when we might listen quietly to a story on the radio, letting imagination take us into another world.There was a time when some peoples lives were devoted simply to the cultivation of the land or the care of cattle. No multi-tasking there; their lives went on at a much gentler pace, and in a familiar pa
